Priyank Sharma was questioned about his sexual orientation with contestants throwing homophobic slurs during his stint, in reality, show Bigg Boss 11. The actor says trolls about his sexual orientation and character do affect him.

He added that his "loved ones" are also affected.

"I think having an opinion or criticism is fine, but attacking someone's character is not acceptable. As a celebrity, I am open to criticism but there is a huge difference between criticism and insult," Priyank said in a statement.

"Through the show, I would like to convey this to people who troll celebrities under the pretext of giving a point of view that if you wish to have fun by insulting others, then you need to pay for it," he added.

Priyanka Sharma was a part of Bigg Boss 11 hosted by Salman Khan. The most talked about reality show wrapped up recently with Shilpa Shinde emerging victorious.
